Introduction 

What does it do? 

The SYSSY extensions is a way to connect your TYPO3 installation with SYSSY platform.

SYSSY is an online platform for managing and monitoring websites. We provide plugins to connect different CMS (content management systems) with SYSSY, so we can receive data about your websites and inform you if there is any problem or if any security updates are necessary in your system or on your server. On SYSSY platform you can see a list of all your projects and if there is any need for a security update in your websites.

You can connect your TYPO3 website and SYSSY to this TYPO3 extension. Just get your project API key from app.syssy.net and connect your website with SYSSY. SYSSY calls your TYPO3 website via a specific page type and fetches your TYPO3 version, a list of installed extensions and their versions and PHP and MySQL version. SYSSY is always up to date and generates a great overview of all your website projects.
